And Here We Are

The above cartoon is from early February and it sums up the current mood as we head into the final days of the campaign. Here in Toronto there's a general feeling of being fed up with being neglected, abandoned and ignored for the better part of a decade. Because the local Liberal MPs never realized when enough was enough, they deserve what's coming to them.

Head on over to Andrew Spicer for lots of great election stuff. Warren Kinsella would have run a better campaign (scroll down to June 22, no permalinks). James Bow encourages civil debate. Vancouver Scrum has the left coast perspective.
And here's a bit of the weird, Dan Savage encourages everyone to vote Liberal:
... I’ll just order my Canadian readers to vote for Paul Martin and his Liberal Party allies. Scandal, schmandal, people! Sensible people in the United States are relying on Canada to continue being more politically and socially progressive than our own government.
Which is fine, I guess, except that the polling numbers seem to indicate that people recognize that Paul Martin isn't as socially and politically progressive as we'd like. Liberal support has fled left to the NDP, Greens and BQ ... not right.
Many years ago Rick Mercer predicted in an interview that Paul Martin would never be Prime Minister. When asked why not, Mercer explained that Martin 'wanted it too much' and that Canadians would keep it from him for that simple reason. And we just might, eh?
